The timezone info is not on any of the MYSQL installations on any server by default. It is not something that can be enabled on a per user basis as it requires root access in MySQL and will affect everyone.

If, however, you are looking to set a timezone in a program, you can set that in your php.ini file under the setting date.timezone For example, to set the php timezone for East Coast in the US the setting would be date.timezone="America/New_York"
